type safety errors reported by Peter Van Eynde July 25, 2000:
- c: (COERCE 'AND 'FUNCTION) returns something related to
- (MACRO-FUNCTION 'AND), but ANSI says it should raise an error.
k: READ-BYTE is supposed to signal TYPE-ERROR when its argument is
not a binary input stream, but instead cheerfully reads from
character streams, e.g. (MAKE-STRING-INPUT-STREAM "abc").

Compiling and loading
so the compiler doesn't compile the type test into code, but
instead just saves the type in a lexical closure and interprets it
at runtime.
- A proper solution involves deciding whether it's really worth
- saving space by implementing structure slot accessors as closures.
- (If it's not worth it, the problem vanishes automatically. If it
- is worth it, there are hacks we could use to force type tests to
- be compiled anyway, and even shared. E.g. we could implement
- an EQUAL hash table mapping from types to compiled type tests,
- and save the appropriate compiled type test as part of each lexical
- closure; or we could make the lexical closures be placeholders
- which overwrite their old definition as a lexical closure with
- a new compiled definition the first time that they're called.)
- As a workaround for the problem, #'(SETF FOO) expressions can
- be replaced with (EFFICIENT-SETF-FUNCTION FOO), where
+ To exercise the problem, compile and load
+ (cl:in-package :cl-user)
+ (defstruct foo
+ (bar (error "missing") :type bar))
+ (defvar *foo*)
+ (defun wastrel1 (x)
+ (loop (setf (foo-bar *foo*) x)))
+ (defstruct bar)
+ (defvar *bar* (make-bar))
+ (defvar *foo* (make-foo :bar *bar*))
+ (defvar *setf-foo-bar* #'(setf foo-bar))
+ (defun wastrel2 (x)
+ (loop (funcall *setf-foo-bar* x *foo*)))
+ then run (WASTREL1 *BAR*) or (WASTREL2 *BAR*), hit Ctrl-C, and
+ use BACKTRACE, to see it's spending all essentially all its time
+ in %TYPEP and VALUES-SPECIFIER-TYPE and so forth.
+ One possible solution would be simply to give up on
+ representing structure slot accessors as functions, and represent
+ them as macroexpansions instead. This can be inconvenient for users,
+ but it's not clear that it's worse than trying to help by expanding
+ into a horribly inefficient implementation.
+ As a workaround for the problem, #'(SETF FOO) expressions
+ can be replaced with (EFFICIENT-SETF-FUNCTION FOO), where
(defmacro efficient-setf-function (place-function-name)
(or #+sbcl (and (sb-int:info :function :accessor-for place-function-name)
;; a workaround for the problem, encouraging the
(print (incf start 22))
(print (incf start 26))))))
+ This example could be solved with clever enough constraint
+ propagation or with SSA, but consider
+
+ (let ((x 0))
+ (loop (if (random-boolean)
+ (incf x 2)
+ (incf x 5))))
+
+ The careful type of X is {2k+5n} :-(. Is it really important to be
+ able to work with unions of many intervals?

190: "PPC/Linux pipe? buffer? bug"
In sbcl-0.7.6, the run-program.test.sh test script sometimes hangs
on the PPC/Linux platform, waiting for a zombie env process. This
c. the examples in CLHS 7.6.5.1 (regarding generic function lambda
lists and &KEY arguments) do not signal errors when they should.
